And we worry about getting stuck in traffic, Late nights at work, And all the other stuff that really don't mean a thing in life, Prayers to the family, I'm so sorry.
God Bless Doug and his family, I know what he is feeling.. as most of you know I lost John Jr. in 1996. and thats when I started the John Jr. Reaction time memorial.. at the CC in NJ (Englishtown)
Following is a poem sent to Bert and myself about a week after John's accident...
I'M Free
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard his call
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to work, or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way
I've found peace at the closure of each day.
If my parting has left a void
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared. a laugh, a kiss
Ah yes, these things I too will miss
Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full., I've savored much.
Good friends, good times,a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all to brief
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift your hearts and share with me.
God wanted me now, he set me free.
